Hold On To Your Dream
You always felt you had a destiny, yeah
You wouldn't bow down to the gods of money and power, baby
You burned bright to shed your light all over the world
You had a plan and it was just a matter of time now
Here today, what happened to that dream
Don't tell me it's over, I still smell the fire

Chorus:
Stand up and hold on to your dream, maybe this is your moment
Stand up and hold on to your dream, you know no one can take it
There is a path, it's always been yours
And you have the right of passage, signed in blood and sealed in tears
Sending you a message across the miles and thru the years
Stand up (and be there) and hold on to your dream
With some faith and conviction (some faith and conviction)

Take a good look, you don't like what you see, no
You just don't come this far and never get scarred, baby
It all seemed like fate, the big dreams weren't hard to make, way back then
Something pure about that, suffer for art, passion and pain
Standing here, what happened to those dreams
Don't tell me they're over, while your heart is still beating

chorus

In the church inside your head, it's all communion time
When you eat your doubts like bread, and then you drink your fear like wine
Where the sinner and the priest light candles one by one
And fear has another mouth to feed, then all the journey's done

Stand up and hold on to your dream, with some faith and conviction

Stand up (and be there) and hold on to your dream, maybe this is your moment
Stand up (and be there) and hold on to your dream, you know no one can take it
Stand up (and be there) and hold on to your dream
With some faith and conviction

Stand up (and be there) and hold on to your dream, maybe this is your moment
Stand up and hold on to your dream, you know no one can take it
Stand up and hold on to your dream, with some faith and conviction
Stand up and hold on to your dream, maybe this is your moment
Stand up and hold on to your dream...
